FAQs

Is this gilet waterproof?

It is showerproof, meaning it protects against light rain but is not designed for heavy downpours or sustained exposure to water.

Can I tumble dry the Crofton Gilet?

It is recommended to air dry this item to preserve the integrity of the padding and the showerproof exterior treatment.

What age group is this specific size 2 intended for?

This size is designed for children typically within the toddler to young child age bracket, consistent with UK size 2 standards.

What material is the gilet made from?

The outer shell and inner lining are constructed from durable nylon, chosen for its strength and lightweight properties.

Is the gilet machine washable?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle. Always check the internal garment label for specific care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking into the fabric

The showerproof coating may need reactivation or the garment may be due for a wash; ensure no fabric softener is used.

Padding feels clumped after washing

Gently shake the gilet once damp and reshape it before allowing it to air dry flat or on a hanger to redistribute the fill.
